'Working together through co-design to make key principles for the CycLink cycling intervention'

Presented by John Carey

John will present findings from the CycLink Co-design Study. This study used an adapted version of experience-based co-design to design key features or 'principles' of a community cycling intervention called CycLink in partnership with young people with disability, parents and cycling providers

John Carey is a physiotherapist, PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne and CP-Achieve Research Associate. He works clinically as a senior physiotherapist and team lead in a Young Adult Transition Service and Special Developmental School in Melbourne. His PhD topic focuses on fostering a supportive environment for young people with disability to participate in cycling. This includes working in partnership with people with lived experience of disability, practitioners and cycling organisations to develop resources and programs.
